Let's go with the _on_cpumask() suffix:
void wbinvd_on_cpu(int cpu);
+void wbinvd_on_cpumask(struct cpumask *cpus);
void wbinvd_on_all_cpus(void);
And the wb*invd_all_cpus() methods should probably be inlined wrappers
with -1 as the cpumask, or so - not two separate functions?
In fact it would be nice to have the DRM preparatory patch and all the
x86 patches at the beginning of the next version of the series, so
those 4 patches can be applied to the x86 tree. Can make it a separate
permanent branch based on v6.15-rc6/rc7.
Thanks,
Ingo
